In the win-! ter when it is bitter cold, folks i vouch for the fact that they always j did like summer the best of any sea-1 ?on in the year and in the sumer, itj is the same way. Poets, too, like to , talk about the weather and thris ac- j counts for many a poem mat iux* i 'been written about the beautiful sun- | shine. If folks are out of something j j to kick about, they all choose the j "weather. Kicks spring eternal in tne 1 human breast. Folks are never warranted in kicking about the weather, , just as the man who marries a gir! for her money and gets the girl but _ not the money is not warranted to kick. Riley was right: "It ain't no < use to worry and complain; its Jest as ) cheap to rejoice; when God sorts out j our? sends rain?why, j tUC f rains my choice." The 'weather brings all sorts of things.

Ice, like the weather, has a gool time. It rides around in a big wagon and then when it gets tired of life, it melt? and runs away. Weather always changes when it gets tired of cne , life for weather does what !t pleases, thougW it seldom pleases anyone. "When everyone is pleased by the .weather at the same time, there will be something doing?and then some.
